Top Considerations When Choosing Bedroom Windows

In choosing replacement windows for your bedroom, not only should you consider how the units frame the outdoor views and offer efficient insulation. You should also look into other important factors, which the windows installation pros of Renewal by Andersen® of Atlanta are going to discuss below:

Sound Control

Many people treat their bedrooms as more than just a place to sleep. These areas also serve as a study area, home office or studio for playing musical instruments or exercising. When you want to keep everything quiet inside your bedroom, consider replacement windows that have efficient insulation, not only against heat but also against sound. Our High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass packages are capable of reducing outdoor noises when the windows are closed.

Home Architecture

Knowing your home’s architectural style as this can help you determine which window style is the right fit for your bedroom. Double-hung windows are a classic choice in most bedrooms, but you can always consider other styles. Bay windows, for instance, gives you extra floor space that can be used for a variety of purposes. You can fit an additional bed, bench, or a freestanding chair, creating a pleasant, multi-purpose nook for your bedroom.

Building Codes

Whatever style you choose, be sure that your replacement windows adhere to local and international building codes. A bedroom needs to have one window that allows egress in the event of an emergency. The unit should be at least 24 inches tall and 20 inches wide and must be installed 44 inches from the ground. It should also have a net clear opening of at least five square feet.

Natural Light

Your bedroom window should have enough glass area not just for framing beautiful outdoor scenery but also for letting sunlight in. Combined with the right interior frame colors and other features, your chosen window is sure to create a refreshing ambiance and a view to wake up to every morning.
